If that's all that Jinro did wrong, which part of it is worse than, for example making a player stand up during GSTL when another one is about to play? And while I can understand if the Korean organizers didn't like it too much, I can't believe that the tl forum is actually flaming Jinro now ...
Jinro waited too long. He put the name down on the board, did the interview and right when they were going to Ryung, he changed it.
You're allowed to troll and play around, but can't put the name on the board, do the interview between the two and then change.
Jinro should have gotten Supernova's name and then been like, 'How would you feel if Huk picked you?', did the banter, put his name on the board for like a second, laugh and then switch.
This. He should've taken the name off the board a lot quicker, the joke was kinda badly timed. However, i could care less about the swearing and i don't Jinro was really in the wrong tht much after the joke.

Basically you know you've messed up when you can put Mr. Chae in a bad mood.
Yes... language barriers have nothing to do with it. The wait would have been 1/3 as long if everything he said didn't have to be translated. At that point its just haha funny.

I don't want to be disrespectful, but who exactly is Virus? I've been following GSL since Season 1 and last season was the first time I actually heard of Virus. Since when is he in Code S? Did he go through Code A or was he in Code S from the beginning? Seems like he never impressed me so I didn't even remember he was there.
Heh, no idea :D! I heared of him, but don't remember ever seeing him play. I am not an avid GSL follower however, more interested in foreign scene.
But his reaction, and people picking him as the weakest made me sad =[
